First impressions: on cars, cemeteries, caring and Office Depot
Posted by Educator on 07.05.16As we drove away from the airport with 200 unfamiliar feeling shekels in my hand, I turned my head from left to right and back again making sure to take in all I could in my first minutes in Israel.

Posted by Educator on 07.05.16It’s been 24 years since my one and only visit to Israel. At the time I was a recent college graduate searching for meaning beyond the corporate world that awaited me back home. Up to that point, I had lived my entire life safely within an Arizona bubble, never seeking adventure for fear of popping.Read MoreEducation, Israel, Student life,
